- Push the wire by hand up and down on the steering collar. Make a mark at the top and bottom positions.
- Measure the distance between the marks. The distance should be 15 +or- 5 mm.
- If necessary, the wires can be adjusted by tightening the adjuster nuts on each side of the steering collar. Do not over tighten the cables; they should only be drawn in towards the steering collar.
